Survival: Fall Foraging - Calgary E924

When: September 22, 2025 from 1-3
Where: Calgary - Edworthy Park
(Meet at Picnic Site 1)

Parental presence required

Join Kaykima for an immersive Fall Foraging Class where you'll reconnect with the land and learn to identify the edible, medicinal, and practical gifts nature offers during the autumn season. Fall is a great time to harvest berries at their sweetest and to track down some late summer mushrooms!  Whether you're a beginner or have experience in the wild, this class offers a rich, hands-on opportunity to deepen your understanding of the natural world around you.

Please wear long pants as we will most likely go off trail. Feel free to bring any berries or mushrooms to class that we can identify as well!
